Is this the right printer for you?

Who the Konica Minolta bizhub 421 Multifunction Printer is actually for

Most printer pages just tell you what a printer does. Here's the honest version: when this machine is the right choice, when it's fine, and when you should look at something else. We sell a lot of these for a reason, but the reason is not "every office."

Best fit

Pick this if...

  • You run a workgroup or department of 25-60 people that needs A3 (11x17) B&W output at enterprise volumes.
  • You print 5,000-15,000 pages a month, well within the 200,000 monthly duty cycle.
  • You want the 8.5-inch color touchscreen, a step up from the older 420's monochrome panel.
  • You need solid finishing — FS-527 50-sheet stapler with optional 2/3-hole punch and 60-page booklet maker (SD-509) bolt on.
  • You're standardizing on Konica Minolta and want the 421/423/501 family for shared parts, toner, and PageScope management.
Works fine

You'll be happy if...

  • You print 15,000-30,000 pages a month — handled, but consider the bizhub 501 (50 ppm) at that volume.
  • You need User Box, encrypted PDF, OCR, or scan-to-USB — most require the HD-516 hard drive option and UK-203 memory upgrade.
  • You need fax — the FK-502 Super G3 fax kit is optional, requires the MK-720 mount kit.
  • You're replacing an older Canon iR-4045 — operators adapt to the 8.5-inch color panel within a week.
Look elsewhere

Skip this if...

  • You need color print — this is B&W only.
  • You print under 2,000 pages a month — overkill on lease for an enterprise A3 floor unit.
  • You print over 30,000 pages a month — toner economics tilt toward the 501 or 552.
  • You need a current cloud workflow — predates AirPrint, Mopria, native cloud connectors.
  • You don't have a Konica dealer relationship — many useful add-on options sold through dealer channels only.
Full specifications

Every spec, no guessing

The Konica Minolta bizhub 421 is a discontinued enterprise B&W A3 multifunction printer for workgroups and departments of 25-60 people that need tabloid-size mono output at mid-to-high volumes. It runs at 42 ppm B&W on letter (22 ppm on 11x17) with a first-copy-out under 4 seconds and a 30-second warm-up. The monthly duty cycle is rated at 200,000 pages — most installs we sold sat between 5,000 and 15,000 pages a month, well within reasonable wear. Standard paper input is two 500-sheet drawers plus a 150-sheet bypass; max capacity is 6,650 sheets across the optional PC-208 cabinet plus LU-203 large-capacity unit. Print resolution is 1800 x 600 dpi equivalent at 256 grayscale shades. The 8.5-inch color touchscreen makes scan-to-email, scan-to-folder, and User Box workflows usable for non-technical staff. Color scanning runs at 70 ipm at 300 dpi via the standard DF-621 100-sheet reversing ADF, with destinations to email, FTP, SMB, USB, and WebDAV. Finishing options include FS-527 50-sheet stapler with optional 2/3-hole punch (PK-517) and SD-509 60-page booklet maker. Auto duplex print and copy are standard. The thing buyers regret: most useful features (User Box, encrypted PDF, OCR, scan-to-USB) require the HD-516 hard drive and UK-203 memory upgrade. Discontinued — buy refurbished or move to a current bizhub i-Series.

Supplies & consumables

Toner, yields, and what to actually reorder

The #1 question we get on this printer is "which toner do I buy?" Short answer: you have two cartridge options and a drum. Standard yield TN830 covers roughly 1,200 pages. High yield TN830XL covers roughly 4,500 pages and is the better value for most offices. Pick XL unless you print very little.

The drum unit (DR810) is separate and usually lasts 15,000 to 30,000 pages before it needs replacing. At a typical small office volume, expect to change it once every 2 to 4 years.

If you lease this printer through us, toner and drum are included. You never pay for supplies separately. That's usually the better deal once you add up real costs over 3 years.

The bizhub 421 features an 8.5-inch touchscreen and a 100-sheet reversing ADF, whereas the bizhub 300i has a 10.1-inch tablet-style touchscreen and a dual-scan feeder for faster scanning.
